A two-year old baby girl, Mercy Osunbawo, stolen by some unidentified men from her home, at 10, Adeite Osunbawo Street, Ejigbo, Lagos, has been found at the local wing of the Murtala Mohammed Airport, Ikeja.

The father of the girl, Olanrewaju Osunbawo, who confirmed the incident said that on the night the incident happened, he and members of his family had a vigil in their home till 2:30 a.m. before they went to sleep.

He said the missing girl slept in-between him and his wife on the same bed inside their bedroom, while four other children slept in their parlour.
